“Cleanliness is not in the plan”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 January 2012

people found this review helpful

Imagine flying 3/4 of the US to be finally checking in at just after midnight to be told by the front desk that we should have received (that never happened) a phone call or an email informing us that the power & water would be shutting off at 8am that morning. Sleep was not in the works or very little if I planned on getting a shower before getting out of the hotel as quickly as possible. Our room was alright, the pictures on the website are much better looking than in person. The bathroom had hair not only on the toilet seat but also in the tub. I wouldn't recommend this hotel unless you could careless that you pay top dollar for unsanitary rooms.

“best hotel location in Oly”

Located between TESC (The Evergreen State College) & downtown Olympia the Red Lion may not be the newest hotel but it's a solid, nice place in the best location to stay in when visiting Oly. Nice view of Capitol Lake too!

Room Tip: Lake view is nicest!

“Friendly Staff, Beautiful property”

I stayed one night on a business trip and was very satisfied. I was originally assigned a room in the portion of the hotel that I prefer not to stay in and when I asked for different accommodations the front desk reassigned my room without any issues and was friendly when she did it. The rooms are large and well thought out and the beds are comfortable. The view of the lake is beautiful. Be sure to draw the drapes back in the morning so you can catch the sunrise its amazing.

Room Tip: ask for a lake view room. They have balconies overlooking Black Lake. The South wing seems older t...
